IE Architecture+ Prize

First prize

The project will seek opportunity gaps with strategic value in Madrid's downtown. The house is no longer a compacted unit inside the building. The reseach of relationship and shared spaces. It colonizes the system at certain points some decks creating a new landscape on the ledge of Madrid.
A system that turns on and off, which rises and falls, where the relationship of citizens is what gives life to architecture.
A system that consolidates the unconsolidated.

Second prize

“La Seminci,” the week of the cinema in Valladolid takes place in November. The project proposes a new permanent center for “La Seminici” in an old building of the city. The idea is to preserve the industrial identity of the existing factory, refurbishing it to introduce a new use. The project will revitalised all the area, and will make possible to celebrate different events related to the cinema during all the year.

WHICH ARE THE IDEAS?

In the cinema, the diagonal sights, the scenes and the movements, the series of frames and the lights are essential concepts.

The location of the historical railway station building in Cartagena is presented as a residual space, within boundaries and next to busy main roads which are unable to provide an urban scale to the heterogeneous context in which there are crowded buildings of very different heights and densities.

This collective landmark claims be a place where a new point of intensity is proposed in order to develop the social fabric of the surrounding urban territory.

Third prize

Sierra Leone is one of the poorest countries in the world, with 52% of the population living below the poverty line and one of the highest percentage of slums in Africa. After studying the development of African cities, I came across this dramatic reality and wondered: How can architects make a difference in a country with a life expectancy under 45 years old, the highest maternal mortality rate in the world, and an infant mortality rate close to 20%? I strongly believe that architects are not mere creators and our work makes us responsible for improving the world where we live.
